No. And you need to get a new PSU because ATX doesn't fit.

SFX is the future. There's no longer any reason to dedicate a third of your case to just the power supply and its cables. SFX PSUs are available in 600W, and soon to be 700 and 800W varieties, so not enough power is no longer an excuse. Mark my words, in ten years, the majority of power supplies sold will be SFX.

There's no pressing need to make smaller desktops and not much demand for it. Desktops are also losing relevancy.

certainly not true. Only laptops have a chance to replace them but they are too expensive to do so.

This is only true for people that use them primarily for email/facebook/youtube, for which smartphones can suffice. But for people who use their PCs for work or gaming, desktops aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

Anyone know of a low profile narrow 2011 cooler?

I want to put a 2699 in the OP case
>>
>>55007314
>2699
>145W TDP
That's just asking for a bad time in a case like this. Understand its limitations and work within them, you'll be happier for it.
>>
It's worth maybe €150.
I'd never pay €230 for a case.

While I do like the idea and appreciate the shifting towards compact designs, I'm not gonna bite at this buy-in price.

My bequite psu barely fits in my bitfenix prodigy as it is. Bitfenix prodigy is my fav as it has handles, this one looks visually better though. It it machined alu?

>>55007442
Brushed aluminium sheet for the panels.

At least that's what it looks like from the pictures.
And it's the only way it'd make sense to make something like this.

I like how the front and top are a single sheet so there's a round bend instead of a line where the flat panels would meet if it were a traditional construction.

I could use it for an HTPC or something, but I want it to be completely silent.
>>
>>55007442
Full aluminum construction. It's manufactured by Lian Li, so it'll be the same as their other cases, if you know them.

Small tryhard cases like OP's and the NCase are never going to be the future. Stuff like the Fractal Define ITX case is the future. As small as it gets without making assembly impossible for non-autists and forcing one to spend a premium on inferior-quality meme-components

Not true. The new Corsair SFX units are pretty good.

>As small as it gets without making assembly impossible for non-autists
Most comments I've read on the build process in the NCASE comment on how relatively easy it is. That probably assumes you know what you're doing though, and do a proper amount of research. Bigger cases are more forgiving in that regard, I'll give you that.
>>
>>55007722
Is hdd/ssd supposed to be right under video card? This sounds like really stupid setup.
>>
>>55007915
It's only "right under" if the video card is in the bottom two slots, which it shouldn't be under almost any circumstances. There's at least 40-50mm between them with the card in the top slots.

There aren't any SFX PSUs with all Japanese capacitors. So fuck off you fucking poorfag.

>Then how come they haven't been sued yet?

Those who buy SFX don't really give a shit because they don't have a choice. Pretty much only Silverstone makes them.

Yeah, other than bequiet and chieftech they seem to be the only option around.

They changed the SX500-LG to all Japanese caps for v1.1. Source: https://hardforum.com/threads/silverstone-sx500-lg-500w-gold-sfx-l.1834746/page-22#post-1041905617

They use an NCT machine for most of the cutting to keep costs down. It tends to produce pinching along the edges though, unfortunately.

>>55006800
The lowest option on Kickstarter is $260 you dummy. Even then, it has 17 days to go and is already well over its goal, so I'm certain they will not be THAT much.
>>
>>55006661
I like the idea, especially with graphics cards becoming more and more power-efficient so you don't need a huge triple-slot cooler anymore.
But it's too fucking expensive.

I'm just waiting for my paycheck to come in. Won't be able to afford any components though so till next paycheck it'll be housing a single core VIA board with 1GB RAM as that's my only mini ITX board

This is clearly a man who has his priorities in life straight.

>>55012375
The new wave of GPUs all need huge coolers. Things like the single slot Fury X water cooler aren't commonplace yet.
>>
I hate to say it, but tiny cases are a meme. There's no reason for it. Even if you live in Honolulu or Tokyo, where living space is really expensive, there's still no reason to choose a tiny ITX case over a micro ATX case. It's literally a difference of a few CCs. Not worth it.

ITX cases carry a huge price premium. ITX motherboards carry a huge price premium. You save a ton of money by just going to micro ATX. Not only that, but because of the extra few CCs dealing with heat won't be such a nightmare.

The money you save by going to micro ATX can go to an entire step up in CPU or GPU. It's ridiculous IMO.

If I didn't need/want a large capacity HDD/3.5" drive, I'd probably switch to a DanCase.

But for all the people complaining mITX has something inferior about it, I don't particularly understand. Maybe some arguments with temperatures, or if you ABSOLUTELY need multiple GPU's. But even in 21:9 ultrawide 1440p, one GPU is enough if you get a good one.

It doesn't have to be under a desk when it's this small. That's the idea. Even if you still want to put it under the desk, now it's taking up less space. I mean why not get a CRT screen, the CRT is behind the glass anyway right?
